Where in years gone by we have found our way to the fabulous Wildpig Comics, this year there just wasn’t a lot to discuss when it came to the comic universes.. so we decided to have an episode where we create our own.

So we got Bill Ellis, manager of Wildpig and longtime friend of the show and Jay Sandlin, new friend of the show and writer of Outbreak Mutiny, as well as a regular contributor to Buzzfeed! I’m also leaving a link here to this article, but you might want to wait til the end of the episode to click on it… trust us.

Let me (Hatton here) take a quick moment to say a thank you to every one of you that has listened over the years and has gotten us here. It is because of you folks that we do it and thanks for being there. As we crest our fourth year and our next episode is that big ol’ triple digit, it is stereotypical, but totally true, that without you, there would be no us. So thanks everyone.

Ok, actually that is a bit heavy for what it really is. We figured since this is our one show off a year, we would still give you something to keep you remembering us, and we went and found something from over the summer that you didn’t hear. It isn’t long. And it’s all explained in the file. So thanks to Marcus over at Deadpan Fury, Wow Geezo and the Nyrdcast… you’ll understand why in a minute.

A former podcaster, writer, and internet weirdo Rev. James was lingering in a local watering hole when he heard a voice he hadn’t heard in years. The bombastic laughter of one Mr. Podcast Rob.

Considering the idea of getting back into the podcast game, over the course of the next few times hanging out, the idea became clear.

After a meeting of the minds (or whatever it is they have in their skulls) – The SomethingCast was born.

Well join us once again as we celebrate our leather anniversary. (Yeah, it’s leather.. look it up.. don’t make anything of it) We’re back at the Something’s home away from home, Wildpig Comics in Kenilworth, NJ with store owner Chris and manager Bill talking the last year of comickiness in front of a live audience.

Also a quick shoutout to friend and regular Tim ‘Ungaije’ Stevens who wasn’t able to make it – but we’ll make sure to get him back on the line soon to be smarter than us.

And to all of you who have supported us over the years – be you friend, family, fan, podcast – thank you. We couldn’t do it without you.

Anyway – we are back with part two of our two part extravaganza at the home of the Pig – Wild Pig Comics! We last left off with WildPig Chris leaving, and still quite a bit of the future of the MCU to go! So join our live audience, special panelists Madison and WP Manager Bill Ellis as we talk about the future not only of the MCU but of comic movies in general. Is the end nigh? What does Ben Affleck think about it? FIND OUT NOW!

How did they do it? Two years ago, two old friends met up and started goofing off… one year ago they met up at their favorite nerdbook haunt, Wild Pig Comics, and talked about the Marvel Comics Universe. Well guess what, it has been one more year and another dozen movies about people in tights.. so we’re back talking with the Madison, the Wild Piggies of Chris and Bill, and a live audience to talk about the past and future of the Marvel Comics Universe.

Also, you will hear a special announcement about a new website and joining a bunch of friends for a new home for your ears!

This episode started as was planned. The Somethings had a list, they were ready to riff on some stuff they knew about.. and lo and behold it all changed in one fail swoop. One of the Somethings decided that he should blindside the other Something into an entire episode about .. well .. one of the Somethings. Apparently, a webcomic’s 10 year anniversary was enough of a reason to go all James Lipton on what should have been a podcast about dragons. FINE. THANK YOU. I GUESS… Geez.

Anyway – yes, this podcast focuses mostly on the life and times of one James Hatton, webcomic creator, and all around nifty guy. You like dots? This episode has TONS of em’.

WHERE WE LAST LEFT THE SOMETHINGS – They were hanging out at WildPigComics with guests, Owner Chris Eberle, Manager & Webcomicker Bill Ellis, and Hatton’s wifey Madison talking about the Marvel Movieverse!

They discussed all the things that happened before. Phase 1. What we know. What we’ve seen. What has been etched into our collective reptillian nerd brain. But what of things to come? What of Phase 2 and the completely mythical and rumor-milled Phase 3!?

Join us once again for the second part of our 1 Year Anniversary Spectacular!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOMETHINGSOMETHINGCAST!

NOTE: As has been a theme of the first year of our show, technical difficulties always raise their pretty little heads, and there were times in the show where some microphones seemed to be at varying levels. I’ve done my best to even out the sound so everyone is audible, but that also has increased a certain amount of ambient noise. This will be fixed in future 1 year celebrations. – J

A little over a year ago – James Hatton, creator of webcomics and hoster of thingies ran into a friend of his years of doing RennFests. They struck up conversations and Hatton remembered just how well they gelled and just how funny of a sumbich he was. He went and offered the chance of a lifetime to one Podcast Rob. A short time later, the SomethingSomethingCast was born.

Now where Hatton may have been the one that brought up the idea – since then, Rob has been a tour de force of making sure the show happens regularly, that creative ideas are always flowing – so Hatton may have started it up, but Rob has become the heart of it.

To celebrate this first year – the boys have gone to WildPigComics with an audience and a panel to discuss the Marvel Movie Universe! The Past, Present & Future

Thank you all for listening – and we look forward to another year of.. uhm.. something.. err.. something..
